Vocabulary Term of the Day
New York Times Bestseller ‘How Children Succeed‘ by Paul Tough
‘Studies conducted by Child Psychologists Betty Hart and Todd R. Risley determined that children raised by professional parents had heard thirty million words spoken to them; the children with parents on welfare had heard just ten million. That shortfall, they concluded, was at the root of the poorer kids’ later failures in school and in life.’
